Bump stop issues

Ddays said:
Agreed, but I was comparing his travel to mine as we have the exact same setup and he's saying his shocks are bottoming out. I definitely don't have that issue. Comparing the amount of shock shaft showing I can see he has considerably less. I'm still wondering if he has the correct shocks in the front....

Did you measure the exposed shaft length (heel Jeeep :)) to see what it is on the fronts?
Unless you have a bumper full of lead it should be close to what mine is - 4.5"

:thinking: OK...So you're at full bump there. How much of the shock shaft is showing? It looks like the shock is there in the background and the shaft is showing :idontknow:

Here's your picture. You MAYBE have a half inch more travel that the rubber bump stop may absorb, but it's pretty much at full bump. And if you look at the red arrow here, you can still see your shock shaft exposed in the background. Do measure to be safe, but it looks like your shocks are not bottoming out to me.

Ok so my lift yields almost 4". RK advised me to use the Fox shocks for 4-6" lifts because of the flex. In the back I'm running 4" bumps and it's perfect, we'll was until the Evo Rockstar but I'm gonna install some Synergy upper shock brackets. The front I'm running 3" bumps and shocks bottom out, barely, but i still feel th em hit.I have stock upper fronts. Imean gonna try some 4" up front, or maybe upper extensions. Any suggestions? Thanks

Did you install the rear Synergy upper shock brackets on your rig? Can you post some pics? How did that work out for you?

How did it work out for you? Obviously gain some up travel. Is that your sway bar or rear track bar in the pic? Can you post post a zoomed out pic? I'd like to see an overview, appreciate you posting it. Thanks

Hope that helps. Got my travel back for sure. That is my sway bar, it's a tight fit with the Kings. Also remember I have my sway set back 1", RK X factor.
